Campaign fund questions linger after hearings
At hearings Monday Neff admitted discussing a campaign fund contribution to Senator Hickenlooper. A Senate committee may seek a short extension to draft its report. A second eight man panel is to broaden the probe into contributions. Goldwater disclosed a $250 donation he said came from Matthew Keck of Chicago, not Howard Keck of Superior Oil. Officials say no family link exists between Matthew Keck and the Keck heirs who own Superior Oil. Stedman cites possible violations re lobbying registration and use of company funds for Neff’s expenses.
